California professor and ex-CIA staffer claims that 'Christian, white men' are primed to start a civil war in America because they 'were once dominant and are in decline' - and blames the right for spike in violent extremism

By ALEX OLIVEIRA FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

A California professor and former CIA analyst said that white Christian men are poised to start a civil war in America

Barbara F. Walter, author of the 2022 book How Civil War Starts, made her inflammatory comments on PBS Tuesday evening while speaking with anchor Hari Sreenivasan.

Walter's remarks come just days before the midterm elections, which the left and right alike have been characterizing as a battle over democracy itself.

Sreenivasan asked Walter - who said she studied foreign nations on the brink of civil war for the CIA - how far off a war within the US could be.

Walter then went on to explain the past '100 years' showed that civil wars are typically started along divided religious and ethnic lines, when a previously dominant group begins to see their position wane.

She then went on to say that 'white men' who 'also tended to be Christian,' were beginning to see such a decline in their position in the US, and that they had 'almost exclusively' been the perpetrators of violent extremism in the country since 2008.

In other words, progressive liberals are preparing to start a civil war, and she is simply engaging in the standard lib/prog tactic of blaming others for her own sins.

In a more just world, she would have her tenure stripped for inflammatory hate like this.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
We won't start a Civil War, despite unreal provocation...

...but if it happens, we'll finish it.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

White men are about to put on uniforms, take up arms, cross the Potomoc, and invade the South?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Like those other folks, we may have to rise in defense of our homes and eject invading forces who would try to tell us how to live.

Without judgement, it is just that basic.

However, I don't think white Christians are the ones who will start it. If anything, it is the looney Left who think they would prevail, even with their five million imported troops.

And far Left woke Marxist Rats are getting ready to pull off a bloody coup to imprison and commit genocide against all Republican registered Americans and their families.

See how easy that is?

"California professor and ex-CIA staffer claims that 'Christian, white men' are primed to start a civil war in America..."

This post is gonna go against the grain.

Ms. Walter is not wrong.

There was a time when "Christian, white men" DID start "a war" in America.
In the 1770's.
For good reasons.
We know what happened after that.

So I'm not gonna be like the rest of you and denigrate her by saying her claim is nonsense, because it's not.

Indeed, I'll repeat this question once more:
Is it time yet to convene that New Continental Congress...?

Once again, the time for the ship already sailed years ago.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Go after a group and demonize then, then viciously attack them, to cover the sins you committed wrongly.  Jews of Germany last Century, whites in America now.
The jews were more easily duped, will useful fools be just as easily duped now? ? ?  Hitler was not to be found in fault, neither is Joe.  Fools still love to be duped attention sluts.
